Exactly. I have no respect for Min Min fans. My least favorite kind of Smash fans are the ones who try to get Character A to steal a slot from a far more deserving Character B. AND TO HAVE THEM SUCCEED (multiple times, counting Decidueye and Slime)!? I hope that Min Min gets cut from Smash 6. Only then will Spring Man fans finally get some justice in this biased series. (or you know, Spring Man actually gets in before Goku. but that will never happen.)
I have not seen a worse reasoning for a character snub ever. You might as well just say "I don't like spring man hoes mad hoes mad hahaha funny"So the main reason Sakurai didn’t put Spring Man in Smash was not because he is already an Assist Trophy but because of a manga character who has the same name?
I'm pretty sure that was a joke.So the main reason Sakurai didn’t put Spring Man in Smash was not because he is already an Assist Trophy but because of a manga character who has the same name?
To YOU, however. If you won't respect me, I won't respect you, so...
Really? it looked more like "get rekt Spring fans" to me.
Sure enough, my assumption was proven entirely correct, more or less, Yabuki considers everyone to be the protag. Sorry folks, maybe next time.
who said Spring Man is far more deserving than Min Min?
ARMS was built around Spring Man. It's his game. Who has the most promotional material? Not Min Min. It's like building up Terry as the protagonist of Fatal Fury/KOF or Ryu for Street fighter only to go "nah. let's add Tung Fu Ru/Zangeif". Not even a character who was an important character like Chun-Li/M. Bison, Geese Howard or Max Brass/Dr. Coyle no no no. we got Min Min.
That is a good point, given that Rowlet was polled to be Gen 7's most popular pokemon.
ok, and Min Min was the most popular ARMS character, by judging from the same things that run for Decidueye, i.e. internet polls and internet requests
Thing is, she didn't get in due to her popularity, she got in because of a special request from the director.ok, and Min Min was the most popular ARMS character, by judging from the same things that run for Decidueye, i.e. internet polls and internet requests
we don't know for sure if Sakurai said the truth (I think so, tho), but don't forget that Sakurai said also that he had already thought to Min Min and Ninjara
Nice mentality. Except the director's favorite gets preference. What a cop out.
Spring Man can work as a semi-clone. All they have to do is give him his own ARMS instead of rehashing Min Min's ARMS. His ARMS work differently from her ARMS.
Ok everyone is protagonist. But Spring Man is the protagonist among protagonists. That’s like adding Wart over Bowser because they’re both villains of the original Super Mario Series. Would you pick Wart over Bowser? Then why Min Min over Spring Man?
Condolences or not, that's a pretty good way to breed further resentment.
Definitely! Hoping for Louie myself, but Pikmin seriously needs more representation.Kinda like how I keep saying Alph can work as a semi-clone with Rock Pikmin instead of Red/Blue/Yellow/Purple/White Pikmin.
As opposed to what you're doing? By in your other posts agreing with that troll account thats hating on characters who made it for the sole reason they are not the ones he predicted and thus dont "deserve" a "slot" (both prejudiced notions that smash fans are far past falling into). All the 3 characters he's hating on are themselves fairly "deserving", have tons of their own fans, GREAT movesets and lots of personality, and Sakurai proved all 3 deserved to be in, to the happiness of their players and fans
I had absolutely no problems with Hero or Incineroar, in fact I'm probably one of Incineroar's few defenders! I do think they could've mixed a couple more actual Pokemon moves into his moveset, but I really dislike all of the hate he gets. Incineroar was one of my favorite Pokemon from Gen 7.
I know I said I wanted to leave for a bit but this person is right. If we want to get in, we have to push beyond this. This is when we need to get serious, and try to gain as much support as humanly possible. If that happens, we may just be able to get the second half of the Chrom situation that other people have been mentioning. Even if it’s a microscopically small chance, it’s a heck of a lot better than nothing.
. made it after some time, why not Springman? He is anything but an impossible. He is an AT, a spirit, a stage cameo, a Mii Fighter and an online profile. A character it's almost like the obvious next step. So keep on the hope, my dudes.

honestly this could spark up some fun conversation about arms 2I was playing on Spring Stadium earlier today and noticed something interesting.
As most players have noticed, the jumbotron on the left side of the stage displays a splash screen for each ARMS fighter. These splash screens feature all new renders for each of the ARMS cast. That's not a new observation, obviously. I've seen quite a few posts wondering what the origins of these renders were.
What's interesting, however, is how each render follows a format. The character's face in the render is put at the front next to their logo, with their background being the character's primary colours and their full render (albeit desaturated and slightly transparent). However, there is one exception to this format. Spring Man instead uses two renders, one which shows his face and another, different one that shows his back. Not even Min Min, the character who made it as DLC in Smash, got this treatment.
"Now, Garteam," I hear you saying, "Sakurai's just giving Spring Man some extra attention because Spring Stadium is his stage. You're reading into nothing."
Well, my hypothetical opposition, would a character getting extra attention have the wrong logo in his splash screen?
EDIT: Image didn't work. Either way, Spring Man has Springtron's logo in his splash screen.
Additionally, it's worth noting that the models in these renders don't appear to be the ones from ARMS (and, by extension, the ones used in Min Min's final smash), suggesting they were not made for Smash and instead come from some other, unknown project. This, combined with the fact Spring Man has two renders, makes me think these renders are for some unknown, future ARMS project where Spring Man will play a major role. After all, if Spring Man really was getting demoted from being the series' mascot or played no special role in this project, why does he have more art than the other characters?
Perhaps the rumoured July direct will come with the announcement of an ARMS 2? Maybe ARMS 2 will have a formal story mode like many fighters have, one where Spring Man is the star? Food for thought.
In before Springtron has been modified and kidnapped the real Spring Man, so that no one will recognize him.I was playing on Spring Stadium earlier today and noticed something interesting.

content, one of the spirits got a new render not seen anywhere before, and that has yet to amount to something.At least ARMS is still pretty new enough to have its full Smash potential realized with more newcomers in the future. Which is more than can be said for some series.
Spring Man isn't hated or mocked, at least not by ARMS fans - the fact that we even had Min Min fans show up on this thread to give their condolences is proof of that. I haven't seen many people mock or hate on Spring Man, and the ones I did aren't fans of ARMS, but rather people who decided to start hating him in March when the ARMS rep was announced.
You weren't there for the post Chrom bashing of Robin's reveal. It was pretty bad.
Opossum
is probably the best person to discuss it.
It feels like ancient history to me... but I remember complaining about how Sakurai sounded hypocritical for saying Chrom isn't unique and that's why he put Robin in Smash... and then he put Lucina in Smash and she is exactly the same as Marth except for the sword tip. All water under the bridge now that Chrom finally made it in.You weren't there for the post Chrom bashing of Robin's reveal. It was pretty bad.
